What makes mopar guy different?
I have to agree on the money aspect of things. Doogie your not too far from where I live and grew up. I used to do car shows at Joe Kidd Dodge. Part of the issue is geographical location as some areas lean towards one brand or the other. I agree I've met people that are so brand loyal that they won't even look at others. I had a 69 Charger that I got my freshman year and didn't drive til my senior year of high school. I drove that car every where. I think that is some of what you see. A lot of Mopar people like to drive their rides with out all the drama at shows. The last time I went to the Pumpkin Run in Owensville I heard a 'Vette owner whining about how he didn't win a trophy and he had a big dollar paint job blah blah blah. That soured me on it. And to be honest some people buy a high dollar turn key car and honestly can't stand there and answer questions some one who is really in to it asks. I personally like to go to shows and look at what others have done. I get ideas that way. To a lot of people it's about status and trophies not the enjoyment of seeing old cars. One other thing I think Mopar people have always been a bit out cast. Me personally I don't really care what others think too much. I just like to enjoy my time.
